Cole's face turned black as coal. "If she refuses to forgive me, then I’ll sever ties with you. When you grow old, you can go ahead and pick up a wild child from the streets to take care of you.”Spencer clenched his fists in anger. “Are you even listening to yourself, kid? Do you think I need you to support me? I’ll ask Carson to do it if you refuse to—”Carson glanced at his young master. He thought that Old Master Yorks had crossed the line this time, hence he decided to stand on Young Master’s side.Carson put on an awkward expression. "I need to take care of my mom and dad too, Old Master Yorks. I’d like to help you, but I can’t. I’m sorry.”Spencer said, "My oh my, what should I do if no one is willing to take care of me? I have so many treasures. Should I perhaps donate it to the country?”Carson turned his coat almost immediately. "Old Master, I can marry a lot of wives and have many sons. I should be able to support another person with no problem.”Cole snapped. "Have yo
Carson was slightly startled. Although Old Master Yorks and Young Master Yorks were both father and son, they both had different styles when it came to treating women.If Old Master Yorks liked a woman, he would do whatever it took to get her.On the other hand, even though Young Master Yorks and Ms. Severe had already slept together, he was still trying very carefully to please her.Whose versions was love supposed to look like?The next day, the sky was still dark.Zayne carried Angeline on his back while Josephine and Sis Shirley held each other as they walked onto the mountain road.When Refreshing Breeze Courtyard was left far behind, Sis Shirley suddenly looked back at the courtyard that was covered in lush greenery. She squeezed out a faint yet sorrowful smile.She had lost her innocence in that place.However, she did not regret it at all.She thought it was worth it because she was able to help Little Angeline out of the predicament.Moreover, the other party was Col
Angeline made no response.The young man helped her up, but Angeline had no strength at all. She fell straight on her back as soon as she sat up.The young man muttered, "Damn, what did they do to you?"Feeling helpless, he brought her hands and hooped them around his neck before carrying her on his back.Lying on the young man’s back, Angeline felt immensely surprised. This young man’s back felt oddly familiar.This was definitely not Jaybie's back, though. Jaybie had a broader back. Moreover, when Jaybie carried her, there would be a barrier in between.This was not Zayne either. Zayne was physically weak and would bend his back when he carried her, doing so with his willpower and endurance.Who could it be, then?Angeline tried her best to take in and experience this familiar feeling. She eventually figured it out.At Grand Asia’s shareholder meeting previously, her body went limp just like today due to the sudden shock she received.Jens was the one who walked over and ge
Carson pulled Zayne away and reasoned with him. "Young Master is more heartbroken than anyone to hear about Ms. Severe’s death."Now that Angeline was gone, Cole’s soul seemed to have left with her as well.In Cole’s case, nothing was more lamentable than a dead heart!It had never occurred to Spencer that he would make things worse. Initially, he thought that once Angeline and Cole had slept together, Angeline would then give in and stay with Cole willingly.What he did not foresee was her strong will to die in glory than to live in dishonor.Angeline's character resembled Cole’s mother very much.Upset and troubled, Spencer came to a small chapel with a gloomy look on his face.His first wife, Crystal Sullivan, was dressed in a khaki habit. She was sitting cross-legged on a mat and praying piously with her eyes closed.Spencer walked over and sat down across from her, staring gloomily at his wife.The demeanor that made her seem as though she had purged her mind of desires a
Chloe was the beauty of Chaurier, and she inherited all of his strengths. She was good in martial arts, had a sharp mind, and was dedicated to helping others. Chloe was the perfect reincarnation. However, the day that she left was the day he felt the pain of his loved one leaving his side.Chloe had knelt in front of him and sobbed. “Father, I’m reluctant to leave you, but for Ronnie’s sickness, I have to look everywhere. If I don’t find Mr. Boye, I swear not to come back. Wait for my news.”Once Chloe left, she never came back.All these years, he tasted the bitterness of his loved one being gone from his side.The look in the grand old master’s eyes became cold. “B*stard, how do you know where the location of the secret shelf is?”He felt that this person must have seen the Nine Paintings that Chloe brought away with her. If his theory was correct, then this person must have been one of the people who caused Chloe’s death.He could not forgive him no matter what. Jay’s gaze
What wrong had he done for him to witness the murder that both his grandfathers brought?His wife and kids also had to suffer. Jay endured it all, but it did not mean that he did not carry any hatred in his heart. Noel had no idea what he was talking about, so he thought that Jay was ignoring him. He suddenly punched him in his stomach with fury.Jay curled up in pain.Grand Old Master Yorks said to him, “If you want to die, I shall grant you your wish.”How could Jay die like that? He still had Angeline and his kids. Besides, he still had a mission to complete. Thus, he replied without hesitation, “Old man, if you kill me, I can guarantee you that someone will take the Nine Paintings and destroy the whole of Mount Pearl. You can taste the bitterness of losing everything that you have by then.”Grand Old Master Yorks’ fist halted in the air. The Nine Paintings was the one thing that he was worried about the most. When Jay saw the fearful look on the Grand Old Master Yorks’ f
Jay’s actions in the next few moments made Noel Yorks regret everything he did.Jay suddenly flew into a fit of rage. As he roared to the skies, he broke free from the ropes that bound him. His eyes were streaked with red, becoming bloodshot.He grabbed the whip in his hand and lashed out, striking one of the lackey’s back. That lackey spewed blood and passed out immediately.Noel stared at him in disbelief. Jay was quick and agile, but the scariest thing was that he had a murderous intent swirling around him as if he could hold a thousand men on his own.Jay held the whip in his hand and continued to whirl it in the air. Crackling sounds rang in the air while a loud rumbling came from wherever his whip came in contact with.Soon enough, the room soon became a pile of rubble.Jay leaped out and rushed toward Refreshing Breeze Courtyard.Noel continued to bark orders, “Stop him. Don’t let him get away.”Noel thought of his Nine Paintings, then looked at the dark aura swirling ar
“I’m sorry, I… I hurt her. I thought that she would stay if everything was said and done.”Cole’s words hit Jay like a truck, disorienting him…When he thought that Angeline had suffered even before that tragedy, Jay went completely insane.“Cole Yorks, I’ll kill you.”Jay’s figure became blurry as he suddenly appeared in front of Cole in a flash. The whip came crashing down on Cole’s body, tearing his shirt open and staining the inside of his shirt with blood.“He’s mad, he’s insane,” Spencer said, dumbfounded. Jay was mad. Now that Angeline was dead, he was completely crazy.He had lost all rationale at that point. He simply wanted to fight on and avenge Angeline. There would be no stopping until everyone was dead. The guards quickly surrounded Jay like a meat wall, separating him away from Cole.Jay leaped into the air, and his whip knocked down all the guards around him. The next moment, Jay’s whip was wrapped around Cole’s neck and it was slowly tightening.Cole sudden
“Madam Angeline, do you have any last words?” The man showed Angeline mercy and gave her the chance to breathe in some air. Angeline pondered upon it for a while and said, “In the past, I only wished for my family’s peace and my children’s health. Right now, I hope that my children will be able to achieve all of their dreams. I hope that Jens will be able to revitalize our family’s business. I hope that Baby Zetty’s wish for there to be no more pain and suffering in the world comes true. I hope that Baby Robbie’s wish for there to be no more separations in families comes true as well.” The man was stunned. The gun in his hands tilted slightly. “Madam Angeline, wealthy people like you live luxurious lives that are free of worries. How would you ever understand the suffering of ordinary people like us? You didn’t mean anything you said to me just now, right?” Angeline said, “I’m about to die. Why would I lie to you? Although I’m from a wealthy family, I’m also a mother. I love
Angeline said, “Although Jens is young, Whitty isn’t at a ripe age anymore. Whitty has waited for Jens for so many years. She should get something in return.” Sir Ares remained silent. However, there was still an unpleasant expression on his face.Upon catching sight of the expression on Sir Ares’ face, Whitty immediately said, “Daddy, Mommy, Jens and I aren’t in a rush to get married. Jens has decided to get married after having a stable career.”Sir Ares seemed to calm down. Jenson stood up and told Sir Ares, “Daddy, I’d like to marry Whitty.” Sir Ares cast a sideway glance at him and asked, “What’s the reason behind your decision to do so?” Jenson said, “I love her.” Sir Ares’ lips upturned slightly. Not only did Jens’ personality resemble that of his, but his outlook on love was similar to his as well.Upon recalling how persistent he was while pursuing Angeline when he was young, Sir Ares knew that he could not stop Jenson.The relationship between father and son w
Sir Ares stared at Angeline speechlessly. At this moment, their memorable love flashed across his mind. He had once loved someone so deeply. He could go against his parents for her as well. Sir Ares sighed and said, “You really can’t keep your children by your side once they’re all grown up.” Angeline stared at the dispirited man before her. Her heart hurt for him. She reached out to hold his hand. Sir Ares smiled at her as she warmed up his hands. He said in an understanding tone, “Angeline, you’re still the best.” Angeline smiled and said, “Of course, I’m the best. That’s because I’m the only person who will stay by your side till the very end. Gale is such an existence for Angel, and Finn is such an existence for Baby Zetty as well.” Sir Ares said, “Alright, stop teasing me. I got it.” Yes, love was above anything else in the world. That was the tradition of the Ares family. Sir Ares was madly in love with Angeline. However, when it came to others, he felt that
However, when Angeline found out about Grayson and Andy’s marriage, she insisted on holding a grand wedding for them.Angeline and Sir Ares called Andy before them. Angeline spoke up in a touched voice, “Andy, I’ve always treated you like my biological daughter. Now that you’re getting married, I’ll marry you off just like you’re my daughter.” Angeline handed a set of jewelry, a bank card, and a key to Andy. She said, “Andy, although Baby Zetty is married, we didn’t hold a grand wedding for her. I don’t know how other families marry off their daughters. Since you’re a girl, you’ll feel secure after having your own property. You’ll have your own freedom after having your own car. You’ll take the effort to dress up after having your own jewelry.” Andy cried tearfully, “Thank you, Mommy.”Angeline hugged Andy and patted her back as she said, “Don’t cry. You must come back often to visit in the future.” “Alright.” After Angeline finished speaking, Sir Ares stared and Grayson an
Whitney handed the envelope over to Andy and said, “Miss Laurel asked me to hand this to you.” Andy slowly opened the envelope under the sisters’ curious gazes. A red spider lily specimen fell out of the envelope.Tears filled Andy’s eyes when she saw it.The sisters all burst into tears. Whitney said, “I don’t know what meaning it holds for you, but I guess Laurel wants to convey something to all of you since she wanted me to hand it to you. Have you understood what she wants to tell you?”Andy cried out loud, “This is the blood oath that we made at the military intelligence division. When we swore to be sisters, Sis Daisy mentioned that although our fates were predetermined in this lifetime and we don’t get to decide how long we’ll be able to live, we can wait for the sisters in the afterlife after death. We must wait for everyone to gather before reincarnation. We can then be reincarnated as sisters in our next life.” Whitney was touched by this beautiful oath. She teared
Jenson then ordered the servants to search every nook and cranny of Tourmaline Estate and Imperial Capital. Baby Robbie seemed to have vanished into thin air. There was no sign of him anywhere.Sir Ares sighed after hearing the news. Angeline gave up after the long search. She told Jenson, “Don’t look for him. He’s all grown up now. We can’t restrain him anymore. Don’t waste more human and physical resources searching for him. Manage Tourmaline Estate well. You and Whitty will have to take responsibility for this household in the future.” Jenson stared into his mommy’s calm eyes. Although he was curious as to why his mommy, who loved her son more than her own life, could react so calmly to his disappearance, he kept that question in his heart. “Yes, mommy.” After leaving Chateau de Selene, Jenson returned to his room in an upset mood. Whitty walked into his room with a cup of hot tea and placed it in his hands gently. “Jens, you’ve been busy every day lately. You must look af
Baby Robbie nodded sternly. After Angeline’s health recovered a little, Baby Robbie paid her a visit at once. His face no longer gave out a childish air. His handsome face exuded a sharpness that resembled that of his father’s.Angeline knew that Baby Robbie would be filled with guilt for the rest of his life after this incident. She also knew that he would change his habit of fooling around and not thinking before acting. “Mommy, it’s all my fault. If I didn’t blindly believe in her, she wouldn’t have the opportunity to damage Tourmaline Estate,” Baby Robbie said. He was filled with self-guilt. Angeline said, “Baby Robbie, I know what you’re thinking. I’m having the same thoughts right now.” ”Baby Robbie was stunned. He glanced evaluatively at the weak and exhausted expression on his mommy’s face. Somehow, Baby Robbie felt upset on behalf of his mommy. It turned out that he was not the only one who did not have a good eye for people. His mommy was in the same boat as we
Jenson decided to rebuild Tourmaline Estate with the underlying theme of ‘remembrance’. Baby Robbie fell silent after looking through the design plans.“Jens, do you think that I’ve committed a huge sin?” He suddenly voiced out his thoughts. Jenson shook his head and said, “Baby Robbie, you didn’t want any of this to happen. However, you should’ve learned your lesson by now. You can’t be kind to everyone at all times.” Baby Robbie nodded and said, “I didn’t understand the meaning behind these words in the past. I get it now.” Jenson was stunned. After Baby Robbie left Jenson’s place, he paid a visit to Angel’s courtyard. Angel was now around seven years old. She was extremely tall and mentally mature. Therefore, she did not seem like a child at all. “Brother, I heard that you haven’t been in a good mood lately. I wanted to look for you since some time ago. However, look at the state that I’m in. How can I go out?” She waved her sleeves slightly. The furniture within the
Sir Ares stared at Sis Thirteen coldly. His gaze was devoid of the fatherly love that he had always shown her.“I knew that you had a hidden motive when you moved into the Ares family back then. However, I didn’t expect you to be so evil and have such a cruel heart at such a young age. Angeline’s love and adoration toward you didn’t warm your heart at all. To me, you’re not just a traitor. You don’t have a heart at all.” Sis Thirteen stared at Sir Ares in shock. Sir Ares’ scoldings seemed to help her better perceive herself. “You hurt my father. You hurt my daddy. That’s why I steeled my heart and decided to take revenge on the Ares family,” she cried out loud. Sir Ares said in a harsh tone, “Karma exists in the world. Why would I hurt him if he didn’t abduct my children? You don’t have the ability to discern right and wrong. You’re just making excuses for yourself. Do you think you’re being reasonable right now?” Sis Thirteen shook her head in devastation. “I only know that
